How to unlock the Clockwork Collector achievement in Dishonored 2 - Definitive Guide

This can first be achieved in Mission 4, once you have reached Jindosh's clockwork mansion. Patrolling the mansion will be some clockwork soldiers, that when killed/destroyed, will drop a number plate. They can sometimes be blown about or hidden under debris depending on how the soldier dies.

One of the easiest ways of disabling a clockwork soldier, at least from what I found was to use Stun Mines. Although bullets, grenades etc will work, they didn't feel as effective. Note that the clockwork soldiers can see behind and in front of them, making stealth a bit harder. Also note that if you manage to remove the head, the soldier will not distinguish between friend and foe and will then run at the city guard in an attempt to murder them. This is another good way of riding the soldiers and guard in one swoop, allowing you chance to pick up the Numbered plates.

To get a plate from a clockwork soldier, you first have to destroy/kill the soldier. After it's dead, search the scattered pieces on the ground to find and pick up the plate. Your first chance to complete this will be in the Clockwork Mansion mission, where there are plenty of clockworks soldiers to eliminate (if you wish).

The soldiers are harder to take out than a normal enemy. You can't really sneak up behind them without them detecting you. You can drop assassinate them with some success, but even that won't take one out (the first time you drop on one, it will remove their head, which eliminates their ability to detect you, if not actually killing them). I believe you have to hit them with the equivalent of two or three killing blows to completely eliminate them. Also, when they are about to die they explode, so you need to get away to avoid potentially fatal damage if you're close to death yourself.

The plates randomly appear in the wreckage of destroyed Clockwork Soldiers. Killing them does not count toward Clean Hands, but it might draw unwanted attention.

It is highly recommended to get this done in Mission 4, The Clockwork Mansion. Moreover, this achievement should be paired with a lethal High Chaos playthrough.

Once you arrive at the Clockwork Mansion, head into the parlor to the right of the foyer and pull the lever on the right-hand side of the room. This will spawn in a single Clockwork Solider and reconfigure the layout of the room, granting access to the rest of the mansion.

From here you will want to Blink/Far Reach onto balcony above the Soldier and wait until the machine is within Drop Assassination range. Drop onto the Solider, tap to remove its head, then set yourself back into position. Attack the Solider one more time and when it's dismembered and dead, you can find a plaque among the debris. Do this twice more over the course of this mission and the achievement will unlock after picking up the third plaque.

NOTE: There are several other ways to eliminate Clockwork Soldiers and obtain their plaques: you can instantly kill them with a stun mine; you can shoot their heads off with a crossbow, then perform a drop assassination; you can attack their glowing limbs with your sword until they overheat and explode.

It’s easy to do in Jindosh’s house, we activate the mechanism, after which many sentries are activated in the house. The easiest way to kill them is to hit them on the back several times, then pick up the sign from the floor.

I had a bug that after the sentry was scattered, the sign could not be picked up. We hit it with the blade, and then we managed to take it. And this happened every time.

if you are going through stealth, I would recommend mounting mechanisms, it’s the easiest way. the robot falls apart a few minutes after reconfiguration

If you go through stealth, then use stun mines. Perhaps I had a bug, but when I destroyed a sentry with a blade, the statistics considered it a murder.

If you are playing for silence and without killing, place a stun mine in front of the standing sentry, immediately step back and watch the sentry fall to pieces. I often had signs merge with parts of the sentry, so hit it (the sign may fly off to the side). It is better to knock out the trophy after quietly eliminating Jindosh.

To get the sign, you need to destroy three sentry soldiers: the first one is on the second floor in the hall, you will get there when you activate the lever. The 2nd is inactive and is located on the floor below, where there is a room with a transparent floor, the 3rd tablet is located by the sentry in the laboratory where Jindosh sits
